1985 Dallas Cowboys season

This marked the final postseason appearance for the Cowboys under Tom Landry and Bum Bright, where they were shut out 20–0 in the divisional playoff game to the Los Angeles Rams.

During the inconsistent stretch toward the end of the season, the Cowboys suffered two of the most embarrassing defeats in team history.

The Cowboys proved to be a resilient bunch however, winning a crucial game at home against the Giants the following week that gave them their first division title since 1981, and the final for Tom Landry.

With the previous season's quarterback controversy behind him, Danny White led the Cowboys' passing game to number three overall in the league.

Turnovers proved to be a problem though, as White and backup quarterback Gary Hogeboom combined to throw 24 interceptions.
